Howdy folks! lil update
Added 2022-12-24 14:23:04 +0000 UTCI have a video nearly ready to go out, but I gotta admit: I'm burnt out at the minute and just can't handle the stress of releasing it right now lol. So I'm gonna pause billing for a while and take a break and come back to it in the new year, I hope that's okay. I'll resume billing after I return & put this one out
This is just a fun movie one, but I have a bunch of longer projects in the works that are kinda spiralling and getting out of control. I think after I take a break I'll try to prioritise a bit to stop myself getting snowed under with different projects
Thanks for the support as always, happy holidays & merry christmas & all that! <3

He paused billing for January but February is back on. That probably required action on his part. So, it's plausible that Shaun (um, the skull Shaun) has not only survived the new year but is crafting again. I am cautiously optimistic!

2022-12-28 20:32:46 +0000 UTCI am also really happy for you to take time off without pausing my payment. A Shaun video is always a good surprise that I don't take for granted! ;) Take care and enjoy this break.

2022-12-28 20:16:22 +0000 UTCHey, just wanted to say that PTO should absolutely be included, everyone else gets it (in reasonable places), why shouldn't you?

2022-12-25 15:24:56 +0000 UTCAs many others have said, please don't feel compelled to not bill just because you're taking a break.

2022-12-24 22:43:45 +0000 UTCJust wanna point out, as a patreon I'm absolutely happy to pay for your time off as well. That's just as important to your creations as anything else.

2022-12-24 21:53:53 +0000 UTCTake care, burnout is pretty important so you're right to take the time off! And don't mind the billing, I think most of us will be absolutely on board to support you anyway!

2022-12-24 21:43:20 +0000 UTCAll good skull guy take all the time you need. You don't have to put out stuff every month btw, I mean people give money to hbomberguy. Just do what you can & merry chroismuss
TheSoulJames
2022-12-24 21:41:50 +0000 UTCNow I have to figure out a way to send you money some other way?! Take care, and please resume billing as soon as you feel comfortable
Wesley Loving
2022-12-24 21:41:27 +0000 UTCYeah adding to what everyone else is saying: giving folks money even in months where they don't put out a video is what Patreon is for.

2022-12-24 20:01:23 +0000 UTCCharging is no issue; you being mentally good is what matters! Hope you get better soon and everything else is a secondary priority!
Flaccidus
2022-12-24 19:42:50 +0000 UTCTake all the time you need. I'm not sure about the others but I don't care if you decide to charge this month or not. Do what you feel needs to be done.
Fel Martins
2022-12-24 17:13:16 +0000 UTCMerry Christmas! I hope you enjoy your break. Constantly creating content of your usual quality must be exhausting, I'm glad you know when you need (or want) one. If you ask me personally, I really don't think you need to stop billing for a break. Your content is worth the wait.
Harro
2022-12-24 17:08:00 +0000 UTCYou are always worth the wait. To me you are one of the most important content creators on the web, so whatever you have to do to get your work out there, even if it's a hiatus, is worth it. Take care of yourself!
Antony Ludwig
2022-12-24 16:47:34 +0000 UTCShaun: none of mind waiting OR paying you a dollar month while we wait.
Troy Blackford
2022-12-24 15:45:40 +0000 UTCTake care of yourself dude - we don't mind waiting! Happy holidays :)
Emily Gardner
2022-12-24 15:26:42 +0000 UTCTake care dude! Your health should always come first. Personally, think that pausing billing is unnecessary - you deserve a regular income
Jacob
2022-12-24 15:20:27 +0000 UTCSounds good, Shaun. The world knows you as a quality-over-quantity guy, so do your thing while we enjoy the content you've already shared. Take care of you and enjoy the holidays.
Jordan
2022-12-24 15:12:57 +0000 UTCI get being burnt out, it's really tiring to deal with the world right now. Take care of yourself.

Johannes Sæbøe
2022-12-24 14:28:40 +0000 UTCMerry Christmas, do whatever's best for you. Certainly wouldn't complain if you just kept billing going but do whatever's least stressful.
Silverhand
2022-12-24 14:28:39 +0000 UTCAlways put yourself first Shaun, good move. Big hugs, and no worries to keep billing, but if that takes the stress off of it for you, then again great move. Get well soon!
